Lockheed Martin Tests JAGM Quad Launch Canister System
Lockheed Martin tested its JAGM Quad Launcher (JQL) in late August using a government furnished Joint Air-Ground Missile (JAGM) against a target tank at the Yuma Proving Ground.
The test aimed to validate JQL as a launch platform for JAGM, addressing a capability gap in defending against larger group UAS.
- The test was successful in launching a JAGM at a 45 degree elevation.
- This was the first time JAGM has been launched from a canister system.
Additional tests are planned to fully validate the vertical launch capability and the missile’s ability in a counter-UAS role.
